Brian,

BK was serious.....I figure that bus should be in good shape too. Give her a whirl.

(BK, did that price include the engine?) ;D

How about a school bus with a wheelchair lift?   Cheap (to buy and to run), readily available, tough, simple to work on, and wheelchair buses always have high roofs which mean about 6'6" inside headroom.   The WC lift should easily handle your bikes.   This may be easier than messing with ramps etc.

Yes, California is replacing all older school buses, but if CARB funds are used for their replacements then the old buses must be scrapped, no exceptions.   Gone are the days that a dismantling yard could let someone buy a bus like that  -  now the engine (or more) has to be destroyed, then the bus is crushed.   Ah, your tax dollars at work . . .

John,
Thanks an yes it includes the engine transmission, windows and sure-pop tires!

But if someones gonna buy it they need to hurry before I get brainstorming and try to work out a deal w/Don Fairchild for one his clean air 6V92's to go in our MCI. 
Like maybe this awesome running 8V92, a clean but condition unknown 8V92 and the current 6V92 that needs repaired all for 1 good 6V92..........hmmm Don reading this? (call me)
